@Andrew C – Well, George was under control of the Winkler device so he had no free will for any of his actions during that time. And when he was freed from the device I think he said that he didn’t remember anything he did while under its control, which is pretty standard for any fictional mind-control – sometimes they’re aware of everything they’re doing but unable to stop it, but usually they don’t have any memory of what they did. So I don’t blame Stan for writing this.
@Andrew,
Well to be fair, it was the Silver Age, standards for storytelling and dialogue in comics have changed a lot since then. Lee’s writing is definitely dated in a lot of ways, but it’s still entertaining to read, which is more than I can say for a lot of other comics of the time.
George Stacy had amnesia too?? And thought Peter attacked him???
I understand we look at the Stan Lee era with rose-colored glasses, but boy oh boy there were some REALLY clunky subplots and dialogue.
